- Pros/Cons

- Quantity Help

The Good: We have really grown attached to this little flower over past year. Wonderful to put 1-2 sprigs of dusty blue tweedia in a bouquet filled with garden roses, peonies, and ranunculus of cream and soft pink. It has such a French Marie Antoinette-vibe!
The Bad: Tweedia has a sticky, white milky substance that drips out when initially cut. It can also be a bit delicate and fragile.
- Give the stems a fresh cut, and place in cool water.
- Remove leaves below waterline.
- Keep in a cool location to extend vase life.
Tweedia is considered a Luxury Accent Flower. Based on our design suggestions here’s our quantity recommendations:
- Bridal Bouquet: 5-8 stems
- Maids: 3-5 stems
- Bouts: 1 stem, but maybe too fragile
- Corsages: 1-3 stems, , but maybe too fragile
- Centerpieces: 3-5 stems
- Large Arrangements: 1-2 bunches, but possibly too short
Flower Moxie reserves the right to make changes or substitutions. All substitutions are only done as a last resort, and only when the reasons for doing so are reasonable and genuine. For example, if a flower becomes unavailable (off-crop), incorrect color, or not in good condition to grace a wedding function we will substitute a flower that has a similar color and price-point.
Acceptable Subs: Something soft blue like Statice paired with another flower or another Accent flower that works within your specific palette.
